Overview
Victron Energy Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/120V Inverter/Charger
The Victron Energy Quattro is similar to the MultiPlus in that they are both a combined inverter charger. However, the Quattro is able to accept two AC inputs and automatically connect to their active source. For example, it can be connected to shore side power and a generator or even two separate generators. It is also a true sine wave inverter boasts adaptive charging as well as many other features.
Another fantastic feature of the Quattro is the main output has no-break functionality. Therefore, in the event of a grid failure or similarly if the shore or generator power has been disconnected, the Quattro takes over the supply to the connected loads (in less than 20 milliseconds).
Since this happens so fast your electronics like computers will continue to operate without disruption! The second output is live only when AC is available on one of the inputs of the Quattro. Loads that should not discharge the battery, such as air-conditioning or a water heater can be connected to this output.

What these specifications mean
Detailed specifications for Victron Energy Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/120V Inverter/Charger have not been published yet. Victron Energy lists this inverter in the Inverters, and we add fields as the manufacturer releases them — in the meantime, ask your distributor for the datasheet before ordering.
For an inverter, the figures that matter most are peak and weighted (European/CEC) efficiency, typically 96–98.5%, topology — on-grid, off-grid, hybrid or micro, continuous AC output in kW, which caps the load you can run at once and surge or peak rating, which covers the brief inrush of motors and compressors. It is the component that decides what a solar system can do: how much power you can draw at once, whether you can export to the grid, whether the system keeps running in a blackout, and how well the panels and battery are managed day to day.
What to check before ordering
The checks below apply to any inverter. Run them against the specification table above — most disappointing solar purchases are compatible-on-paper units that fail one of these in practice.
- Choose a hybrid inverter if a battery is in your plan now or later; retrofitting storage onto a pure grid-tie inverter usually means buying a second unit or an AC-coupled battery system.
- Confirm the inverter is approved by your local utility or distribution network before you buy if you intend to export power — grid connection depends on certified anti-islanding and local grid-code compliance, not on the inverter's specifications alone.
- Match the battery communication protocol (CAN bus or RS485) between inverter and battery. Compatible voltages are not enough; without a supported protocol the battery management system and inverter cannot agree on charge limits.
- Look at the warranty term and what it covers. Five years is the common baseline, ten is offered by stronger brands, and extensions are often cheaper bought with the unit than later.
Common mistakes
- Buying on peak-watt price alone. A cheap inverter with a narrow MPPT window forces awkward string layouts and can strand a portion of the array.
- Ignoring the ambient temperature rating. Inverters derate in heat, so a unit rated 5 kW at 25 °C may deliver noticeably less on a hot roof-adjacent wall at 45 °C.
- Assuming any grid-tie inverter keeps the lights on during an outage. Standard on-grid units shut down for safety unless they have a dedicated backup or islanding output.
Price and availability in United States
Victron Energy Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/120V Inverter/Charger is listed at $ 3,142 (USD) for United States. Solar pricing moves with supply, import duties and exchange rates, and distributors set their own margins, so treat this as a comparison reference and confirm the current figure before you order.
SolarBazaar compares equipment rather than selling it. Shortlist here on specification and price, then buy from an authorised distributor or installer in United States: warranty cover on solar hardware is normally honoured through the channel you bought from, so confirm who supports Victron Energy locally before ordering.
Victron Energy Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/120V Inverter/Charger — frequently asked questions
How much does Victron Energy Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/120V Inverter/Charger cost?
Victron Energy Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/120V Inverter/Charger is listed at $ 3,142 (USD) for United States. The figure is indicative — solar prices move with supply, duties and exchange rates, and each distributor sets its own margin — so confirm the current price with a supplier before ordering.
Who makes Victron Energy Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/120V Inverter/Charger?
Victron Energy Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/120V Inverter/Charger is a Victron Energy product, listed under inverters with model reference QUA125021100. The Victron Energy brand page lists the rest of its range so you can compare across the catalogue.
Is Victron Energy Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/120V Inverter/Charger right for my system?
That depends on what it has to connect to. For an inverter, check peak and weighted (European/CEC) efficiency, typically 96–98.5%, topology — on-grid, off-grid, hybrid or micro and continuous AC output in kW, which caps the load you can run at once against the rest of your equipment before price enters the decision. Size the inverter against the loads you need to run simultaneously, not against the total wattage of every appliance in the building — a 5 kW inverter comfortably runs a fridge, fans, lights and a couple of ACs, but not all of them plus a water pump starting at the same time.
Where can I buy Victron Energy Quattro 12V/5000VA/220A-100/100/120V Inverter/Charger in United States?
SolarBazaar lists and compares equipment rather than selling it. Use the specifications and price here to shortlist, then buy through an authorised distributor or installer in United States — buying in-channel is what keeps the manufacturer's warranty valid.
